Dr. Tom Neal talks with Orthodox theologian Dr. Paul Gavrilyuk about the Christian doctrine of deification (theosis) — our participation in God’s life by grace — and how this vision reshapes salvation beyond mere moralism, bridges Eastern and Western traditions, and speaks powerfully to ecumenism, suffering, ecology, and the work of IOTA and The Oxford Handbook on Deification.
